Layout: Written in 1 column of 131 leaves.
Script: Written in a large, neat minuscule in a very black ink and in the so-called "Hodegon style". Initials in outer margins in a faded red ink. Titles also written in a faded red ink. Headings in a red uncial, heavily abbreviated. From fol. 110v-end, the script becomes much smaller and seems less careful; ornamental initials disappear.
Decoration: Ornamental initials in a faded red ink; likewise ornamental penwork in a faded red ink (fol. 64v, 88v, etc.).
Origin: Laura Monastery, Mt. Athos?; signed and dated by the scribe, Anthimos, who also copied and signed liturgical volumes now at the Vlatadon Monastery in Thessaloniki (dated 1445 and 1446); in notes he inscribed on the manuscripts at Vlatadom he writes that he came from Rhodes and worked at the Lavra of St. Athanasius.
